doubleday some women would DO far
better than some male druggists we

''ln what way do you mean?'
in several. For instance. women
are quicker than men, learn more
easily, and are less apt to be deceived
in reading prescriptions They are

the difference between a pretty female
clerk at the soda water fountain and
the stupid and clumsy boy There is
no comparison.
'Why are not more women engaged

Principally because it is a new idea.

years ago. All new ideas are Of slow

The distinguished l,iah agitatoi
Mi hazel Dayitt, was present at one o.
the sess ons of the general assembly OF
the Knights of Labor he'd ia Mnneap
polls, and in the course of his remarks
before that body said that the irish
movement has rendered service TO the
cause of reform ever where, and that
the United States i. indebted TO the
Irish movement in great measure for
the principle OF alien landlordism in
this country. He claimed that the
success Of the home rule party would
rid the United States of much of the
undesirable immigration which is
constantly coming 10 our shores. Ire
lands thousands of acres are suffering
for cultivation. and the impoverished
laborers who come to our shores in
swarms, would in the event Of the
sue cess Of home rule and the breaking
of the ba kbone of the landlord syste q.
remain and cultivatc the fertile folds
Of Erin. On the contrary victory for
monopoly in Ireland would he added
strength to the enemies If labor every
where. and victory for lreland's poor
would help the working classes every
where.
